Indian Biryani Recipe
Biryani is one of those dishes associate with special occasions like pujas, parties or weddings. It’s a little bit of effort to get everything in the pot, but the end result is very worth it. All the spices cook into the rice to make an amazing one pot meal. It’s highly customizable – veggies and […]
Georgian Lobio Red Bean Dip (Georgian Food Month, Part 3)
Welcome to part 3 of Georgian Food Month. Click here for part 1 (Phkali– a spinach and walnut dip) or part 2 (Kharcho Soup – vegan/non-veg versions). I’m a big fan of red beans for their nutrition and versatility. They can be thrown into chili, made into ice cream, used in baking and of course […]
Georgian Kharcho Soup (Vegan and Non, Georgian Food Month, Part 2)
Welcome to Part 2 of Georgian Food Month. Click here, if you want to check out part 1, phkali a walnut and spinach dip as well. After running, I’m often ravenous. During the cool down, my girlfriend and I like to ask each other “if you could have anything to eat in the world right […]
RoodonFood Reviews: Sacred Chow Vegan/Kosher/Gluten Free (Greenwich Village, New York City)
Sacred Chow in the Greenwich Village serves up some of the best vegan food in the New York. It says a lot that as a meat eater I crave their food. In business since 1995, we learned of this spot via Groupon two years ago. The restaurant features sandwiches, many Asian inspired entrees, and a […]
Pineapple Miso Cilantro Sauce Via Vegetarian Times
Post Superbowl (congrats Patriots), we happened to have leftover pineapple (from pizza) and cilantro (from nachos). After a bit of googling I came across this Vegetarian Times “sambal” which means sauce in Sri Lanka, Indonesia and other countries. We didn’t modify much from the original recipe except the amounts. I love how the miso thickens […]
Indian (Desi) Style Cornish Hen Recipe
This post is several months overdue as it’s technically Thanksgiving related. Lets just call it a timeless classic, okay? My Indian immigrant adopted the American Thanksgiving tradition for as long as I can remember. Some years we ate turkey, and other times cornish hens. If you like Indian flavors you’ll love this variation. Plus it’s […]
Udi’s Gluten Free Bagels Review
My girlfriend went gluten free around 3 years ago. Since that time we’ve tried several brands of bread including Udi’s. In that period she had exactly 0 bagels. Zero bagels in 3 years? In the northeast that is tantamount to treason. Luckily, the local grocery had them on sale for $4 versus the regular $6-$7. […]
Gluten Free Vegan Sugar Cookies
Christmas means cookie time. I love sugar cookies for their simplicity and their seasonality, plus bonus sprinkles! We just made our first batch using the gluten free recipe from Minimalist Baker. We followed the instructions fairly closely though we made them vegan by substituting flax egg for regular egg and rice for regular milk. We […]
Review: Hi, I’m Skinny Sweet Potato Sticks (7oz)
Usually I don’t care for brands with skinny in the title. I made an exception for “Hi I’m Skinny” (HIS) because they’re sweet potato flavor and it doesn’t have any of the aforementioned imagery. Also, it was on sale at the local Rite Aid for $2.50. Calories conscious folks will be happy to read that […]
Enjoy Life Gingerbread Spice Cookies Review
Enjoy Life makes great products. I’ve previously reviewed soft-baked chocolate chip and crunchy double chocolate cookies. These gingerbread spice cookies are easily the best of the bunch though. It’s deceptively tricky to make a cookie that is vegan, gluten free, soft and actually tastes great. Every bite fills the mouth with the brightness of ginger […]
